Abstract: In a mounting structure of a flip chip IC, the flip chip IC is mounted on an alumina laminated substrate through conductive lands of the substrate and bumps of the flip chip IC. A space between the flip chip IC and the substrate is filled with resin. Further, inspection lands are provided on the substrate for inspecting the flip chip IC, and are electrically connected to the conductive lands through vias and inside wires provided in the substrate. That is, the inspection lands are connected to the conductive lands to bypath an edge portion of the resin. As a result, separation of the resin from the substrate can be prevented.

Abstract: A mounting structure includes a laminated ceramic capacitor mounted on a mounting substrate. The laminated ceramic capacitor includes a main body chip made by a ceramic dielectric, internal layer electrodes, and pair of terminal electrodes. The mounting substrate is made by alumina substrate, and has a pair of substrate electrodes made by copper plating. The laminated ceramic capacitor is mounted on the mounting substrate by using an Ag paste. Here, the substrate electrode is set to be smaller than the Ag paste. That is, the Ag paste is extruded from the terminal electrodes and the substrate electrode so as to contact to both of the main body chip and the mounting substrate. Because the Ag paste has a high adhesive strength compared to that when it is bonded with a metal, total adhesive strength can be improved. Consequently, the reliability of mounting can be improved.

A first pattern integrated portion having a locally high pattern density is provided on the second substrate. Further, on the fourth substrate which is disposed on an opposite side of the second substrate with respect to a center in a laminated direction of the circuit board, a second pattern integrated portion having a locally high pattern density is disposed to correspond to the first pattern integrated portion. Accordingly, a local warp can be prevented from being produced on the mounting surface of the multilayer circuit board when the circuit board is manufactured by baking.

Abstract: Via portions are formed in a first green sheet for a first layer of a laminated substrate. Then, conductive lands are formed on a surface of the first green sheet and a wiring pattern is formed on a back face of the first green sheet to be connected to the conductive lands through the via portions. The thus formed first green sheet is joined to a second green sheet having via portions therein so that the wiring pattern of the first green sheet contacts the via portions of the second green sheet. In this case, by forming the wiring pattern on the back face of the first green sheet, lamination slippage of the wiring pattern caused by lamination of the first and second green sheets can be prevented.
